Mr. Obed of Spice-Ghana Analyze Nazz Music
For many art
is a dynamic expression of self, experiences and an interpretation of visions
but we will generally accept that beyond the subjective nature there will
always be ideals. So every new artiste must be ready to undergo a series of
critique which can make one excel in their chosen field of art especially
music.
A few weeks
a go www.thesavannaonline.com received a song from Raafi in Tamale, the song by
Nazz left such a huge impression about Nazz’s ability to bring something
danceable yet refreshing to music made in the savanna regions of Ghana.
SavannahOnline
decided to bring in someone we can
describe as a musical aficionado into the fray as we seek to analyze Money-O.
Without
mincing words Mr. Obed O. Otoo an experienced sound engineer and the man behind
the numerous caller tunes made available by Spice-Ghana had the following to
say on this maiden release by Nazz.
“Good
sounding Afro pop...the song can match any of the Afro pop songs trending now.
It can easily make you dance. The simple yet complicated theme is enticing
enough to capture the mind of listeners, whilst making the listener loose the
fact that the song is in more than one language. The beat maker did a good job
and mixed well. But one can always suggest a thing or two when it comes to the
beat and the mix; however, I take nothing away from the producer and the mixing
engineer. They did well.... I would have loved to hear a ladies voice when it
came to the chorus to give that segment of the song a different vibe. If it is
promoted well, and not rushed to become a top 10 or 20 song it would climb
slowly to the top and will do well even in Nigeria and some parts of Africa
where afro pop has huge following.
You can hear
an East African vibe mixed with a Ghanaian and Nigerian style of vocal
delivery, however the singer still manages to sound original, something I
attribute to his flawless switch between
his native language, pidgin and English, which suggests how much control and
command he has on the song. It will be interesting to hear him on a song with
Diamond Platinum of Tanzania or P-Square. If the lead vocalist continues
singing this way for the next year or two he will be one of the power houses
when it comes to Ghanaian artistes who will be making it big in Nigeria, Kenya,
Tanzania and Uganda. “…Obed O. Otoo

On 17th
October, Afro Pop, Highlife and Soul artiste Nazz has dropped a refix of Tekno’s Pana Track, Nazz Pana refix has received
positives views from Djs to Music critics, as if that wasn’t enough Ghana’s
King Sark dropped a refix of Pana on the 20th, just 3 days after Nazz Pana
refix. Nazz pana is seen to be more popular than Sarkodie Pana
The Tamale
based artiste appears to have really put in a lot of work to come up with this
beautiful song sang in Dagabani and English. The melodies, hooks and verses are
just so in sync that dancing becomes less of a struggle.
